"Mine were stuffed, and I have left them
in England 1t was the same team which
conveyed Mai Jarvis right through from
Fort Churchill, and their reward on arriv-
ing Mt Winnipeg was to be poisoned by
prussic acid and stuffed for exhibition. I
have the harness here with me.n "How
many dogs do they usually have to a
teams" was the next question. "There
are usually four, but very often six or
eight. 1t would not do, however, to have
more than four in team to be driven
through the streets, as with tho bands Of

''The best dog is q cross between a wolf
and collie slut. They are not savage,
but on the contrary are very devoted to
the man who feeds them. They are very
peculiar in this respect A man may drive
team five years and feed them every
night, but II he sells them, the buyer feeds
them, and thereupon he becomes their
boss. They give implicit obedience to the
man who feeds them last. Good dogs are
worth from $25 to $50. They used to be
employed in drawing fish from Lake Win
nipeg into the town, and are often used
yet by the Indians who come in on treaty
days for their pay. When the indians
have their sun dance they kill and cat the

religious crusade against them. At all
hours of the day my office is pestered with
a continuous stream of boys, who seem to
feel that they have been defrauded out of
their just and natural rights If their re-
quest, or rather demand, is refused. They
rush in noisily, and either shut the door
with n bang that shakes the very floor and
sets the desks dancing, or they leave Il
half open until the room is filled with
draughts Of cold air, when the thermom-
eter without is perhaps several degrees
below zero. OF course the companies
themselves are most to be blamed. They
vie with one another in getting up cards

questionable whether they do any good in

81 lost big money on Christmas and
New Years cards." said dealer on
Broadway to reporter. 1.-THE demand
does not seem to exist for them as in
years gone by. The rising generation is
becoming so @sthetical it is very hard to
cater to their dilettanteism. They seem
to suffer, as it were, from the safety of
over refinement and culture; hence the
utter impossibility to please them. I i'm

come popular. Well, l am out several
thousand dollars and have been taught

and they were really works of art
"a young man sauntered in q few days
before Christmas and asked to SEQ some
hand painted cards. I showed him some
hand painted ones, and this is how he
questioned me; Yes, you say they are

man, smiling blandly at my anger, de-
parted. He is but sample Of many
others. Presents this Christmas mostly
consisted of rare books or articles of vertu.
The cheap cards and the expensive cards
were purchased generally by the very
young misses and boys. In future the
designs Of Christmas and New Years
cards will have to be made especially to
suit the taste Of the very youthful The
young men have advanced so rapidly they
require something that is on higher art

"Did you notice that old man who just

other day. "Well, he will sit with his
right leg crossing the left,'
"Why, what do you mean ?"
"Nothing much. Only that any oh

Well, come with me. Wen take short

A few moments later saw me aboard a
car, the sole occupant being n German
woman with basket.
"She don't count ?" suggested, inquir-
ingly.
"Oh, yes. You can tell women just us
well as men. She will put the left foot
over the right" Almost before ho had

statement, the left broad shoe was slowly

Australian eggs are preserved in the
following simple manner: The vessels in
which the eggs are to be placed are glass
jars with patent shoppers, vulcanized India
rubber joints making them perfectly air
tight. AS soon as the eggs have been COL
lected, the jars are stood in hot water for
some time, and left until the air in them
has become thoroughly warm and rarified.
The jars having been heated, the eggs are
wrapped up in paper to prevent them
knocking together and placed in the warm
receptacle, their pointed ends being upper
most. The jars are Immediately closed
up, and then, and not until then, are re-
moved from the hot water. 1t is said that
II this process is skillfully carried out the
eggs will be as fit for the breakfast table
as the day they were laid many months
after they were put in the jars. The great
secret of success in carrying out this
method is no doubt to thoroughly heat the
air in the jars. The eggs will stand
better chance Of keeping If the paper in
which they are packed is previously baked.

are not absolutely necessary, any stopper

rope around his neck, so that if he gets
into 'he water the rope may be frightened
and the animal choked. The strancled

surface, and is then usually pulled out

Novelists have gotten up a corner on
weird and startling subjects and thrilling,
CHASTITY tales now hare the call. Novels
have their fashion and the novelist must
cater to the current desire. The Howells-
James novels are losing their popularity,
and those of the class to which Steven
sons belong are gaining the public's ear.
This change in the taste of novel readers
occurs every few years, and II the libra
ries had kept record of the character of
tales called for most frequently during
certain periods they could tell just how
long fashion lasted and when its turn
came again. At all events, it looks as IL

Letters received at Plymouth from Ran

to defy us everywhere. He is most active
in the Minhla district, where the naval
brigades are acting, and has well
equipped following of daring and desper-
ate men. Every effort is, however, being
made to surround him, jungle and all. It
is said that this freebooter is really an
